Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates generally to a surgical instrument and, more specifically, to a surgical instrument for clamping tissue, approximating anvil and cartridge assemblies, and for surgically joining tissue.
  • Surgical stapling instruments used for applying parallel rows of staples through compressed living tissue are well known in the art, and are commonly used, for example, for closure of tissue or organs prior to transection, prior to resection, in anastomoses, and for occlusion of organs in thoracic and abdominal procedures.
  • such surgical stapling instruments include an anvil assembly, a cartridge assembly for supporting an array of surgical staples, an approximation mechanism for approximating the cartridge and anvil assemblies, an alignment or guide pin assembly for capturing tissue between the cartridge and anvil assemblies and for maintaining alignment between the cartridge and anvil assemblies during approximation and firing, and a firing mechanism for ejecting the surgical staples from the cartridge assembly.
  • a surgeon approximates the anvil and cartridge members and then fires the instrument to emplace staples in tissue. Additionally, the surgeon may use the same instrument or a separate instrument to cut the tissue adjacent, across or between the row(s) of staples.
  • US4617928 describes a surgical fastening instrument in accordance with the preamble of Claim 1.
  • the present invention relates to a surgical stapling instrument including a handle portion, an elongated portion, an end effector and a knife in accordance with Claim 1.
  • the elongated portion extends distally from the handle portion and defines a first longitudinal axis.
  • the end effector includes a cartridge assembly and an anvil assembly, and is disposed adjacent a distal end of the elongated portion.
  • a tissue contacting surface of the cartridge and anvil assemblies is disposed substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the elongated portion.
  • At least one of the cartridge assembly and the anvil assembly is movable with respect to the other from an open position to an approximated position for engaging body tissue therebetween.
  • the cartridge assembly is configured to house a plurality of staples.
  • the knife is movable from a proximal to a distal position.
  • the knife includes a raised middle portion.
  • proximal refers to the end of the surgical stapling instrument that is closer to the operator
  • distal refers to the end of the surgical stapling instrument that is further from the operator.
  • instrument described and illustrated herein is configured to fire surgical staples against an anvil surface; however, it can also be used to fire other forms of staples, fasteners, clips, as well as two part fasteners, made of metallic or polymeric material.
  • the surgical stapling instrument of a first example of the present disclosure is indicated as reference numeral 100 in the accompanying figures. Details of an angled surgical stapler are disclosed in commonly-owned U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 2007/0187456 filed on April 10, 2007 .
  • Surgical stapling instrument 100 is configured for clamping tissue, approximating its jaw members, emplacing staples or fasteners in tissue, and cutting tissue.
  • surgical stapling instrument 100 includes a handle portion 160, an elongated portion 120 and a pair of jaw members which includes a cartridge assembly 130 and an anvil assembly 140, both extending substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the instrument.
  • Surgical stapling instrument 100 also includes a clamp 200, disposed adjacent cartridge assembly 130, for instance.
  • clamp 200 Upon activation of clamp 200 (discussed in detail below), clamp 200 is translated distally to compress tissue (e.g., an organ), thus temporarily occluding the organ. The tissue is compressed between clamp 200 and a portion of the jaw member housing anvil assembly 140. Additionally, distal translation of clamp 200 allows the user to help ascertain where the staples will be emplaced.
  • staples 300 may be fired (e.g., simultaneously or sequentially) from staple cartridge 130 in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the instrument and emplaced in the organ held by clamp 200 and between jaw members. Further, the user may then transect or cut the stapled organ with a knife 220.
  • the knife can be built into the instrument or the surgeon can utilize a separate knife. In various examples, the cutting may be done substantially simultaneously as stapling the organ. Additionally, the use of at least one guide pin 250 may be used to help facilitate alignment between cartridge assembly 130 and anvil assembly 140.
  • FIGS. 2A and 2B two different embodiments of a portion of surgical instrument 100 having a cartridge are shown.
  • Cartridge assembly 130a of Fig. 2A and cartridge assembly 130b of Fig. 2B are respectively shown having different locations of knife 220a, 220b.
  • FIG. 2a illustrates knife 220a adjacent one of the two rows of staples of fasteners 300a. That is, one row of staples is positioned between the knife 220b and the other row of staples.
  • FIG. 2b shows knife 220b between two rows of staples or fasteners 300b (the cartridge having two pairs of rows of staples).
  • the knife can be positioned adjacent the two or more rows of staples or positioned between the two or more rows of staples.
  • the rows of staples are arranged in a substantially linear configuration and arranged in rows substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the instrument.
  • guide pin 250a is shown in a particular location in FIG. 2a , it is envisioned that guide pin 250a and knife 220a could be positioned relatively closer to one another, such that at least a portion of the row of staples 300a and/or knife 220a extends beyond guide pin 250a.
  • An example of when a knife 220a could extend beyond guide pin 250a is when knife 220a and guide pin 250a are not aligned.
  • guide pin 250b and knife 220b could be positioned relatively closer to one another, such that at least a portion of the row of staples 300b and/or knife 220b extends beyond guide pin 250b.
  • the guide pin 250 could also be semicircular in cross section so it is flat on one side to provide space for the knife to pass by in examples where the knife extends to or beyond the guide pin.
  • clamp 200c includes an elongated tissue-contacting surface 202c and, in its proximal position, is located adjacent cartridge assembly 13Oc.
  • Tissue contacting surface 202c extends substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the instrument and in the illustrated embodiment, has a length similar to a length of the anvil assembly.
  • the length of the clamping surface 220c exceeds the length of the staple line and/or knife slot and exceeds the height of the elongated member from which it substantially transversely extends.
  • tissue-contacting surface 202c of clamp 200c could be smooth, jagged, serrated (e.g., to interlock with tissue), rounded, flat, angled, beveled, bent (to provide a greater surface area ⁇ , etc., or any combination thereof. It is further envisioned that a portion of the end effector (e.g., part of anvil140c or adjacent thereto) could include a groove (not explicitly shown in FIGS. 3-6 ) for accepting clamp 200c to help secure tissue therebetween.
  • clamp 200c extends from a distal portion of the elongated member, which extends through the elongated portion of the surgical instrument.
  • a proximal portion of the elongated member is disposed in mechanical cooperation with a movable portion (e.g., "clamp handle” which is a movable handle, screw, etc.) of the handle assembly.
  • a movable portion e.g., "clamp handle” which is a movable handle, screw, etc.
  • actuation of the movable handle causes the elongated member to translate distally within the elongated portion, which causes enlarged clamp head 200c to travel distally to compress tissue.
  • a second elongated member may extend through the elongated portion of the instrument and be used to fire staples from the cartridge assembly 130c.
  • the second elongated member may be proximally engaged with a movable portion (e.g., "firing handle" which is the same as the clamp handle or a different movable portion) of the handle assembly and may be distally engaged with a portion of the cartridge assembly 130c.
  • actuation of the firing handle may cause distal translation of the second elongated member, which may cause approximation of the jaw members and/or staples to be fired from cartridge assembly 130c.
  • clamp handle is at least partially retracted towards its original position, thus causing proximal translation of the elongated member, which causes proximal translation of clamp 200c.
  • firing handle is at least partially retracted towards its original position, thus causing proximal translation of the second elongated member, which causes proximal translation of cartridge assembly 130c with respect to anvil assembly 140c, for example.
  • a spring can be provided to bias the elongated members, jaw members or handle(s) to the retracted position
  • cartridge assembly 130c includes two rows of (staggered) staples (staple pockets 302c are shown in FIG. 3 ) and knife 220c (as evidenced by knife channel 221c).
  • the knife channel 221c (and knife 220c) is positioned adjacent only one of the rows of staples as shown.
  • the two rows of staples help reduce the profile of the end effector and may also help provide better detection of margins (the outer limits of the stapled organ).
  • one row of staples or more than two rows of staples can be used, e.g., two pairs of two rows of staples- one pair on each side of knife 220c (as shown in FIG. 7 ).
  • the number of rows on each side of the knife need not be equal.
  • one row of staples can be provided on one side of the knife and two rows of staples provided on the other side of the knife.
  • FIGS. 7-11 another example of the distal portion of the surgical stapling instrument 100d is shown, utilizing the cartridge assembly of Figures 1 and 2B .
  • the steps of using surgical stapling instrument 100d of this example will be described (with the tissue, e.g. organ, being omitted for clarity).
  • FIG. 7 shows the end effector positioned such that the organ or other tissue to be stapled is situated between cartridge assembly 130d and anvil assembly 140d.
  • FIG. 8 illustrates the advancement of guide pin 250d.
  • Clamp 200d is then translated distally to compress the tissue against a portion of the anvil assembly 140d (which may temporarily occlude the organ), as shown in FIG. 9 .
  • FIG. 9 illustrates the advancement of guide pin 250d.
  • the jaw members are approximated to clamp tissue therebetween by advancing the cartridge assembly 130d towards the anvil assembly 140d.
  • the anvil assembly can be moved toward the cartridge assembly to clamp tissue or both the cartridge and anvil assemblies can be movable toward each other to clamp tissue).
  • Staples are then fired from cartridge assembly 130d toward anvil pockets (a few representatively shown in FIG. 4 designated by reference numeral 142c; not explicitly shown in FIGS. 7-11 ) of anvil assembly 140d where they are deformed by the anvil pockets.
  • Knife (evidenced by knife channel 221d in FIG. 11 ) is translated distally from cartridge assembly 130d through tissue either during, e.g.
  • guide pin 250d and cartridge assembly 130d are retracted proximally as shown in Figure 11 . Retraction can occur either, simultaneously or consecutively (sequentially). Clamp 200d is also retracted proximally, such that surgical stapling instrument 100d can be removed from the organ.
  • handle portion 160e of surgical stapling instrument 100e is shown in various stages of actuation.
  • Handle portion 160e includes a stationary handle 162e, a first movable handle 164e, a second movable handle 166e (e.g., sharing a conunon pivot point with first movable handle 164e) and a release button 168e.
  • first movable handle 164e towards stationary handle 162e
  • first movable handle 164e towards stationary handle 162e
  • an elongated member (not shown) from which the clamping head extends is slidably positioned within the elongated portion 120e and is connected to an upper portion of movable handle 164e via a pin (not shown). In this manner, when handle 164e is pulled proximally, it forces the elongated member distally to advance the clamp.
  • second movable handle 166e After pivoting of first movable handle 164e, second movable handle 166e is actuated. Actuation of second movable handle 166e (e.g., towards stationary handle 162e) (see FIG. 14 ) causes the guide pin(s) to translate distally and causes approximation of the jaw members as the mechanism for advancing the guide pin(s) and at least one jaw member (e.g., cartridge assembly) is operatively connected to second movable handle 166e via, for example, an elongated member attached by a pin to the upper portion of the handle 166e.
  • a jaw member e.g., cartridge assembly
  • first movable handle 164e can be further actuated as shown in Figure 15 to advance a firing bar within elongated portion 120e to contact staple pushers contained in the cartridge assembly to engage and advance the staples distally from the cartridge assembly toward the anvil assembly.
  • a single handle can be utilized to approximate the jaws and fire the fasteners in the manner described in U.S. Patent No. 6,817,508 .
  • release button 168e can be actuated to release the clamp (e.g., from a locked position) such that the clamp retracts proximally.
  • release button 168e is disposed in mechanical cooperation with the mechanism for advancing the clamp, such that depression of release button 168e unlocks the mechanism for advancing the clamp from an actuated (e.g., distal) position.
  • Such release button can be similar to the release button of U.S. Patent No. 6,817,508 to release the jaws.
  • both the mechanism for advancing the clamp and the mechanism for advancing at least one jaw member are in mechanical cooperation with second movable handle 166e.
  • an actuator within body 160e would first advance a clamping bar attached to the clamp and after full advancement of the clamp would engage an approximation bar for advancing the cartridge.
  • second movable handle 166e is movable towards and/or into engagement with first movable handle 164e, e.g., to distally translate the clamp. It is further envisioned that a partial actuation of first movable handle 164e causes the guide pin(s) to translate distally and/or to cause approximation of the jaw members. Additionally, a continued actuation of first movable handle 164e may cause staples to be fired as a proximal portion of a firing rod is mechanically engaged with first movable handle 164e and a distal portion of the firing rod is mechanically engaged with pushers of the cartridge assembly.
  • first movable handle 164e is physically prevented (e.g., via a lockout in handle portion 160e) from being actuated until second movable handle 166e has been actuated and is engaged therewith.
  • the jaw members cannot be approximated and staples cannot be fired until the clamp has been actuated to compress tissue.
  • the handle portion may include a single movable handle that may be squeezed multiple times; where each actuation can perform a distinct operation. That is, a first actuation of the movable handle may actuate clamp 200, a second actuation of the movable handle may approximate the jaw members, and a third actuation of the same movable handle may deploy staples and knife.
  • FIG. 16 Another method of actuation of surgical stapling instrument 100f is illustrated in FIG. 16 .
  • a first actuation (or partial actuation) of movable handle 164f advances the clamp, as the mechanism for advancing the clamp, e.g. an elongated bar from which the clamp head extends, is mechanically engaged with an upper portion of movable handle 164f via a pin within the handle portion, for example.
  • the turning of a knob or screw 180f in a first direction approximates the jaw members, as knob 180f is in mechanical cooperation with a threaded elongated rod such that rotation of knob 180f in one direction causes the elongated rod to longitudinally translate (distally) to advance the cartridge jaw member and reverse rotation retracts the cartridge jaw member.
  • a second actuation of movable handle 164f then fires staples and/or advances the knife.
  • the user can then press a release button 182f to open the jaw members as in the aforementioned patent 6,817,508 .
  • button 182f is in mechanical cooperation with a lockout mechanism that maintains the jaw. members in an approximated position.
  • Activation of button 182f mechanically disengages the lockout mechanism, thus causing or enabling the jaw members to open.
  • a user may then tum knob 180f in a second direction to translate the elongated rod (e.g., proximally) to cause the jaw member to return to its original position.
  • a rotational knob or screw can be used to advance the clamp and another rotational screw used to approximate the jaw members.
